    I remember watching that video and reading those comments. Looking at how bad that roof was rotted, you can understand why some people were skeptical. But the proof that you knew exactly what you were doing is seeing how it looks today. You nailed it and it's fixed permanently.
    Happy Birthday.

      I wouldn’t say permanently but, I will accept fixed on a budget. Any moister that gets in there will eventually be an even bigger headache, especially when you don’t neutralize the rust that was already there.

      @@dougj.8288 Did you watch the video? He did neutralize the rust. And the closed cell foam he used is water proof. I seriously doubt moisture can/will ever get in there given the way that he packed it in. There may be other problems in other areas of the roof down the road but I think this particular area will be fine. Would a metal repair or a roof replacement have been better? Sure, if you have the dough.

    I think alot of the doubt the so called professionals (some could of been) had is because they never tried anything like that before. I'm not a professional but I've seen a few people use a similar method just without the foam and it worked fine. It looks amazing and well done on that top. I was more worried about the top because you made it look to easy. I really thought there was alot more to it. I don't know your past painting and fab training but I thought you said you basically learned on your own by trial and error. If thats true thats even more incredible.

    Spray foams for household uses absorb moisture. Automotive foams are 2 part and repel moisture. That being said, I've used the cheap household foams to fix my own vehicles. I had a 78 Camaro that was completely rusted out. I knew it wasn't gonna be around long, so I used spray foam fiberglass filler to make it look better. People who hadn't seen it before the repair had no idea. I drove it till the frame started giving out then sent it to the Junkyard. If i was doing a repair that i wanted to last, I would use Automotive 2 part foam. There are different types for different applications. There are stiff structural foams. Soft NVH foams. And some in between.
    If you're working on your own car. Not trying to sell it. Do what you want. But if you're doing a car to sell. Use the proper products and techniques. If you're doing a customer vehicle. Do what they want or can afford.
    Sprayway definitely shows how to get the best results for whatever budget you have. Great video as always

    I remember watching this the first time around, just watched the whole thing again... Honestly I didn't think it would last (but didn't comment, I figured that you knew what you were getting into) for 2 reasons:
    1- My cousin used spray foam for similar repair on a mustang. Eventually the foam got water logged and the pannel rotted out from behind
    2- I grew up in the rust belt (Buffalo), and my experience with rust repair is that unless you manage to get EVERY LITTLE SPECK of rust out it comes back very quickly. Typically that's next to impossible to do and you were working on a bad spot. I'm wondering if going after it with the vinegar is what really made the difference. Typically someone would cut out all the pitted areas and still have problems with it coming back, and even rust reformers/phosphoric acid type products don't give results this good.
    Either way it worked, and worked well.
    That said, I am curious, why did you bother with the spray foam in the first place? You could have prepped the metal the same way and that fiberglass repair could span an area bigger than those holes successfully and been structurally strong enough. I guess that it might have been marginally easier to lay the fiberglass over the foam, but I doubt that you would have had a problem with that.

    Cool work ! Really like the vid! This is a very less electrifying way to repair but I politely disagree with the affording to pay a welder. When welding on YT is also DIY.
    Harbor freight shopping list
    1. The grinder is about $10
    2. Flap disc a couple for a pack of 1-2 $5
    3. The welder is around $100-120 one spool of .035 wire material is 15 on Amazon or$ 17 (plus there'd be a ton left to practice with and left over.
    4. The steel can be bought from home Depot for little to nothing.
    The hardest part is shaping it with cardboard. As a replacement template. For the rusted out piece.
    Steel will always be stronger over time than the fiberglass but what about if this is left outside? And over time the car bouncing up and down the road and if it has a sound system will slowly sperate it like it did my factory ramcharger rear fiberglassed hatch.
    I think this is great in a pinch but not the best for structurally sound. Imagine if this car rolled over which piece do you think would give in first the. Steel or th fiber Glass. Still a really good option just not on the roof steel/lead is still king for roofing on cars

    I picked up a wire feed, what they call a Flux core welder for cheap, under 199.00 a few years ago from Harbor Freight. (UP in Canada or Alaska, its called Princess Auto). I just beleive that welding in a peice of metal then finishing it out, would last longer.

    Man!!! This video is an extremely intelligent approach to DIY vehicle body work!!! I believe that the Most High God has endowed you with the
    knowledge to do this work, and I am amazed about the manner in which you repurposed the vinegar and the spray adhesive. I had intended to
    use liquid steel (no welder either) for my body repair projects, but it is far less cost efficient than your method. Keep in mind that the auto
    industry has manufactured cars (Corvettes, etc) that embody complete fiberglass bodies; Obviously, the players haters don't know this fact...

    I think the title of this video should be "How to Work One-Handed Like a Boss!" The fiberglass is a great option, but I'd avoid the spray foam. It absorbs and holds moisture. Since you probably still have a lot of rust behind the repair (you can't get to the other side of that metal, after all), it's asking for trouble later on. Still a beautiful job and holding up well.

  • @CortezBurt
    @CortezBurt ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I don't know why anybody would have questioned this repair from the beginning. Fiberglass does not rust! That repair will last longer than the rest of the car. 😂😂😂 The technique he used is the technique that I used to repair my fiberglass running board on my van. 6 Wisconsin winter years later. It's still holding. Even after I hit a couple of snow banks. 😂😂

  • @emerybryant
    @emerybryant ปีที่แล้ว +1

    criticism. Spray foam traps moisture. Thus it cant escape. Meaning over time that repair will degrade and cause problems. The haters exeggerate it lol but its a matter of time. I think you know that. But i also know you do a damn good job! 🙂 so ignore the haters.

  • @joeaviles2419
    @joeaviles2419 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I used to be completely against this, probably because I got an unpleasant surprise with my 77 lemans. The og vinyl top collected moisture and rusted the bottom of the b pillar. Dude threw bondo on it and the holes jut got bigger. You sir give me hope for the future cause I ain’t got the money for a welding job. Btw how would this do if it was not covered by a top and/or kept in a garage? Thanks for sharing your talent bro.

    When are we going to see Sprayway weld in patches? The foam provides a structure for the fiberglass like a metal patch. Great solution for down South but not sure if that would work in the rust belt. LOL You could also rivet a metal patch in there too. You're channel is one of my favorites and I have learned a lot watching do your thing.

    It’s crazy that GM had the drip rail end into an unfinished area with no way for the water to escape and created that mess under there,a little more thought during the design of the car would have gone a long way.
    I repaired the rockers and cab corners on my first C10 when I was 16 years old with spray foam and fiberglass. It worked Well
    My skillset at the time didn’t allow me to replace them with new metal.
